Last month, our leadership team travelled from near and far for a 3-day onsite leadership training session at our Frankfurt facility.
As our team continues to grow, these training sessions are imperative to encourage collaboration, knowledge sharing, and most importantly, to get to know one another.
While our team may be distributed across Europe, it is important to us that we develop a unified approach to processes for everyone’s benefit.
During the 3-day session, what was evident, and I’m sure something witnessed in companies worldwide, is that we all experience the same opportunities and challenges. It was fantastic to see our leaders unpacking these opportunities and challenges and determining solutions that will positively impact their roles, teams, and customers.
We have always said that the greatest asset is our team. Empowering our teams to do such work has been deeply engrained in our value system from when we were just a small team operating from of Dublin. To that end, we promote a development culture by investing in training like this and encouraging our colleagues to be open-minded and view every challenge as an opportunity to innovate and improve our work practices.
During this time, we also gained invaluable insights from Psychologist Roisin Russ. Roisin works with organisations providing training around well-being and management styles as the team expands in each region.
The well-being of our employees is of utmost importance to us, so exploring ways to manage stressful scenarios and instilling time management skills will assist with the fast-paced environment of ATC is something that we are constantly working on improving.
We can’t thank Roisin enough for her energy, professionalism and insight.
Reflecting on this gathering, the team commented on how the session encouraged them to explore challenges as opportunities and to be proactive in communicating with our European colleagues to ensure that a unified approach is maintained.
We look forward to keeping this positive momentum with our next session ahead of Christmas. In the meantime, ATC has a variety of exciting career opportunities open should you be interested in joining our growing team.
